Yeah, Joy, you don't.

Speaker 4 (01:06):

Speaker 2 (01:10):
You turn, you.

Speaker 1 (01:24):
Gotta turn. I got to turn the mouth.

Speaker 5 (01:42):
Turn you probably got to turn the mouth, turn out
the water, the monk.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
Come come on you, I sure will. Good morning everybody.

Speaker 4 (02:05):
You are listening to the voice, Come on dig me now,
one and only Seve Harvey got a radio show.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
Yeah man, got one. Hey.

Speaker 4 (02:14):
You know, I thought I think of my life in
terms of blessings. You know, I take mostly a positive
approach and a positive spin to my life. I hardly
ever dwell on you know, the what's well. I can't
say that I don't think about the what's wrong in
it because I have to, because I have to address
problems as they arise. But I try not to let

(02:38):
them consume me. I let the consumption part be about
the blessings, the positive things that has occurred in my life,
the good things that God has done for me, the
power that He's displayed in my life, the protection He's
given me over the years to being tucked under his wings.

(02:58):
I focus on the things that he promises me. I
think of all the goodness that I perceive to come
my way. I think that has a lot to do
with me learning more and more about the law of
attraction in terms of you know, what you think and
what you put out in the space, and what you
pray about is what you receive. You know, and so

(03:19):
I've become better and better at that. It's not to
say that I'm not human and I don't have moments
where I think a little bit too long about what's
going wrong and what enemy is about to attack and
what they're going to do and say, and all it
is his. That's not to say that I'm not concerned
about it. But I try to dwell mostly on the positive.

(03:41):
And one of the things that I learned, you can
have an incredible life, all of us. We can have
incredible lives if we just let God drive. See. The
problem that I had years ago was I was the
driver of my life, and I was taking myself in

(04:02):
the directions that I thought would be best for me,
and I aimed at things that I thought I could accomplish,
and I set goals that I saw myself being able
to attain. I was driving when I gave up and
I let God drive. I then opened up my mind

(04:23):
and my spirit to what God had for me, For
what God could see for me, for what God could
do in my life. Well, for what God wanted for me.
Now he wanted for me, and he wanted of me. See,
that's the connection that you got to try to make. Well,

(04:44):
not try, that's the connection that you got to make
to really get it. Now, listen to me. What I
don't want you to do is do like me. Don't
be afraid of the what for of the what he
wants you to do part see, because that ain't gonna
be nearly as demanding an and as offsetting as you
think it's gonna be.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
See.

Speaker 4 (05:02):
I thought that if I did God's will, that if
I let God tell me what to do, that it
would cause me to not to be able to do
a certain some things I wanted to do well, which
is true. But the stuff I wanted to do was
all detrimental to my well being and my future and
my growth and development as a man. I was stopping

(05:24):
my own growth as a man because see, I was
doing what I thought I should do as a man.
But when you give it over to God. See, God
has a much better plan for you than you can
ever have for yourself. And God knows a better way,
far better than the one you know.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
I want you to believe that.

Speaker 3 (05:39):
Man.

Speaker 4 (05:39):
You got to understand that part of it. And that's
the part that I finally got through my head to
let God do it his way and to show me
a better way, and to teach me a better way
and expose to me a better way. And when I
opened up my mind to what God was talking about,
I began to see things totally differently, and things started

(06:01):
coming to me totally differently.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
If you've been a.

Speaker 4 (06:04):
Friend of mine or a fan of mine over the years,
I mean, you've had to see it, the change.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
You've had to see the difference.

Speaker 4 (06:13):
I mean, and I acknowledge that every chance I get,
because I promise God I would, and I hope that
I'm not falling short in that category. But then again,
if I told it all day long, would he done
for me? I still wouldn't have enough time to really
explain thoroughly what He's done for me, because it's such
a continuous growth in me. But now that's not to

(06:35):
say that I'm finished or I'm done or I'm complete,
because I'm still shock.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
You can't be him.

Speaker 4 (06:43):
You can strive for perfection. I hear people saying it
all the time. I applaud you for saying you want
to be perfect, but you ain't and you can't. And
so you quit saying it. You quit saying it to me,
quit saying it to other people. I'm seeking a life
of perfection. But it's something that you can have because
he said you can't do it.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
But that's what he'd have for.

Speaker 4 (07:04):
He'd have for the moments when you stumble and you fall,
and you go stumble and fall. See, you got to
get that part right, man, The stumbling falling part is coming.
But see, you get God in your life and it
helps you so that you don't stumble, fall, wallow roll,
over lay their languish.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
That's what God is for. So when you stumbling, fall,
you get back up.

Speaker 4 (07:26):
Because you're going to make mistakes, You're going to get
it wrong, You're going to come under attack, You're going
to be lied about, you are going to be falsely accused.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
That's going to happen to you the.

Speaker 4 (07:39):
Moment you make a decision to do better the moment
you try to be more. The devil got to send
his attackers, man, and he controls certain people. He just
got people that's on his side twenty four seven.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
You know him too.

Speaker 4 (07:53):
You've all met one or two of men in your life.
They just busy with the business of nothingness, just busy
about about the destruction of others. You said, I know them,
you know them. They coming. But here's what you gotta
hold fast too. They can't take away nothing from you
that God gave you. They didn't make you. See, people

(08:16):
who claim to have made you, if they so in
to make you business, why don't they make theirself?

Speaker 1 (08:23):
Or if they ain't with you no more?

Speaker 4 (08:24):
And they so busy in them I made you business,
why don't they make somebody else? Since you want to
get credit for making somebody make yourself. If you're responsible
for someone else's success, then you should easily be able
to take claim and be responsible for your own success. See,
be careful of that. Don't and don't change your course

(08:48):
because somebody is attacking you with that. I just hope man,
that I'm giving it to God the way I said
I would give it to him, that I would unload
every chance I got that I was supposed to without.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
Being, you know, or here he come again?

Speaker 2 (09:02):
You know.

Speaker 4 (09:02):
I try not to be that, but man, I don't
know what else to be for the first twelve minutes
of my show? What else you want me to say?
I got four hours? I can't give God twelve twelve minutes, man,
I mean, for real, Steve, come on, man, I mean,
let's look at this right here. If you've given honor
to God just twelve minutes out the day, dog, he
gave you twenty four hours of luxury and life and

(09:25):
breath and hope and promise, you ain't got twelve minutes
to give him out the day. That don't make no sense.
What in exchange? What a wonderful life God has given
me in exchange for so small of effort that I
put forth. Don't let the effort you got to put
forth to God seems so dawning that you don't attempt
to do it, because man, it seems like a lot.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
It ain't nothing to compare to what He be giving
us for real.

Speaker 4 (09:47):
So if you want a real life, you want a
real shot at what you can be, what you can have,
what you can own, what you can become who you
really are.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
Go to God, let him fix you. Man.

Speaker 6 (09:56):
That's all you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
Speak positivity and light into your life. And so shall
it be. In the beginning, God said, let there be light,
and guess what happened? It lit up?

Speaker 4 (11:15):
Watch what comes out your mouth, because that's what's gonna happen.
I declare that today would be a great day. I'm
already grateful for all the things God is setting up
to go in front of me. I expect God to
be in every room before I get there. And when
I get that, all I got to do is look
for him. I claim this in his name, Ladies and gentlemen.

(11:35):

How amazing is about a thirty six?

Speaker 4 (12:50):

would do exceedingly and abundantly over all you can think of.

Man?

Speaker 1 (13:01):
I promise you am It is amazing to me what
God has done for me. You know.

Speaker 4 (13:09):
The saying that sticks out for me. Justice is when
you get what you deserve. Mercy is when you don't
get what you deserve. But grace is when you get
what you don't deserve. Me and my life is full
of grace because it's no way I've worked really hard

Like what is this book?

I don't understand how y'all keep trying to keep these
relationships alive. And your husband then told you that seems
a little bit strange to him, But you're gonna go anywhere.
How important is that baby shower to you? How important
is it for him that you're there? You see what
I'm saying, y'all got too much importance and relevance put

(23:25):
on each other at the expense of someone else. It

ex boyfriend? That ain't cho baby? And your husband then
said that seems a little strange because we're friend, really really,
So I guess y'all was friend for y'all started dating,
and then if y'all was dating, he was your friend.

(23:47):
And now y'all havene broke up, y'all still friend. We'll
see how that sounds crazy. You see how that.

female co worker. I mentioned for my co I motioned
for my coworker to be quiet. My coworker called me

she could have You're absolutely right, she could have.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
It.

Speaker 6 (24:54):
Sounds like she did it later.

Speaker 1 (24:57):
Either way. Your coworker is out of line. Yeah, that's
an out of line.

You know, people that's not in relationships and marriage don't
really know the dynamics of it all the time, and
they always, oh, you, so you can't have a you
can't have a female friend exactly.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
Oh so you ain't allowed to talk to nobody. No, no,

No I can't. No, she can't have male friends, my wife,
so no, no. So yeah, but who is it that

a sucker.

Speaker 2 (25:46):

comfortably in one seat. All right, Southwest will no longer
offer a complimentary second seat. This, let's he change is
a dramatic shift and is causing a stir amongst oversized passengers.
What do you think, Steve, is discrimination? Or is the

Speaker 6 (35:22):
Finally, this story, we got it. This story has been
trending on social media after a woman it's seeing climbing
out of a ten story window in a high rise. Okay,
the story says that she's a side piece that's trying
to escape when the man's wife comes home unexpectedly. The

(35:45):
side piece is being called a real life superwoman. The
video appears to be legit, so if this is true,
we sure hope the woman made it out of that
window safely. Okay, first of all, but can you believe
that though?

Speaker 4 (35:58):
Really that's that's that's just sheer dedication, hands grips able
to just leap tall buildings like that.

Speaker 1 (36:08):
That's beautiful like that.

Speaker 6 (36:10):
Yeah, but that that was pretty brave of her. Maybe
it would have been safer for her to face the wife.

Speaker 4 (36:17):
No no, no, no, no no no, yeah, yeah no,
I can assure you what happened was the reason she
was hang dropping from that tin flowing because she was
back there and she heard the words almost this be

(36:38):
you can walk somewhat out to.

Speaker 6 (36:40):
The front, just knowing that the wife is coming through.

Speaker 1 (36:44):
Now, she should have held up the wrong rooms. I'm sorry,
excuse me. Something all informed the pest control people that
you are roach free. Excuse me?

Speaker 6 (37:00):
Was Sandra Shirlette as she was doing it doesn't say
it doesn't stay coming up at twenty minutes after the hour,

Ai and Amazon. All right, so, Michael Jordan, the legendary
Michael Jordan is make headlines again for being spotted aboard
an eighty million dollars super yacht, but this time it's
not for a game winning shot. It was described as
a seventy meter vessel that is one of the most

(38:12):
lavish yachts to date. It has five sprawling decks, a
private gym, a basketball court. You know a lot about
these type things. Steed Beach Club, several lounges designed for
comfort in any climate. Michael Jordan is getting a lot
of backlash because large yachts burned thousands of gallons of fuel,
releasing enormous amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Reports

(38:35):
say that he does not own the yacht, but did
charter it for a week or two.

Speaker 1 (38:40):
So here's a question.

Speaker 6 (38:41):
Should you be ashamed of your success and how you
choose to spend your money?

Speaker 2 (38:47):
No?

Speaker 1 (38:48):
Good, every right, no, man, he got every right. That
is ridiculous.

Speaker 6 (38:52):
He worked for that money. How say it won't It's
a seventy meter vessel, any meter vessel, one of the
most lavish yachts to date, eighty million dollars super yacht
and he rented it for a week.

Speaker 1 (39:08):
Yah. You know how many people do that?

Speaker 2 (39:11):
You? We know you? You do it magic?

Speaker 6 (39:16):
Yeah, because of the the you know, the gas fumes
and all of that.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
That's what it is.

Speaker 6 (39:23):
The carbon diog to go.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
Yeah, being conscious of the atmosphere and you know you
just run off gas and Jones time that boat is
out in seat.

Speaker 2 (39:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (39:41):
If I got George, I'm just saying, if my logo
is on shoes, I'm on the boat to.

Speaker 1 (39:51):
I don't understand. Yeah, what is that logic?

Speaker 6 (39:56):
So now you can't live because you're super successful you're billionaires,
so you can't live your life.

Speaker 1 (40:02):
And the atmosphere and global warming, that's an issue we have.

Speaker 2 (40:09):
Then.

Speaker 1 (40:09):
Don't make the boat then, but it's not like he
does it every day.

Speaker 4 (40:15):
Don't make the administration that's gotten rid of affirmative action,
teaching black history in schools there that in a minute,
what people are going to be stunned that in just
a short minute, they've getting rid of the Affordable Care Act,
they're going to kill Medicaid. And y'all, if you're talking
about this one boat, how much steam is shooting of man?

(40:39):
Y'all need to find something else to do.

Speaker 6 (40:42):
I know, I know, crazy, Yeah, I mean, so what's
he supposed to do with all this money? I mean,
how is he supposed to He's supposed to get an electric.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
I guess boat with Michael too here, and I know
he smokes to God. So we're gonna put that in
the air too.

Speaker 8 (56:44):
Thank you.

Speaker 6 (56:45):
A few subject one undercover and end it up under
the covers here. Stephen Shirley, one of my sister's best friends,
has been dating a man for ten years and he
hasn't proposed to her yet, but he's cheated on her
several times. He swore that he would never cheat on
her again, and he joined her church to gain her
trust back so she wouldn't leave him. She's still with him,

(57:08):
and she started to suspect he was cheating again after
he turned his phone off her few times while he
was out at night. My sister had a brilliant idea
that was supposed to help her friend out. They decided
that since her boyfriend didn't know me, I would start
popping up at the club he always goes to and
I would flirt with him. I put on a short

(57:29):
wig and I put on more makeup than I usually wear,
just to make sure he did not suspect anything. I
had done this before for my sister, but her boyfriend
got suspicious because my sister and I look a lot alike.
He ended up dumping my sister because she was playing
games with him. But this new guy was different. He
had never seen me before. So we danced, drank, and

(57:51):
even kissed in the club. One of my friends was
there getting video of everything. The more drinks I had,
the more his body felt so good against mine. He
leaned into me once again and kissed my neck. I
was ready to go home with him. I couldn't fight
the feeling, and it had been a while since I
had been touched that way. I ended up under the

(58:13):
covers with this man, and it was the best experience
of my life. I went back for a few more
times before I reported back to my sister and her friend.
My sister is mad at me, and so is her friend.
I did what I was supposed to do. How can
they be upset when I when I did what was
asked of me. Yeah, yeah, okay, they asked you to

(58:35):
do it. It was crazy, But you know you're wrong
for this. Let me say you guys are all wrong.
All of you all are wrong for this. It's crazy.
This is not a brilliant plan to find out if
he were cheating. If he was cheating, and are you
really trying to get Steve and I to believe that
she actually wanted you to sleep with her man. Come

(58:56):
on this, you're not that stupid. I mean, yes, was
stupid to begin with, but you didn't have to go
to this extreme to find out if her man was cheating.
She knew, She's been through this ten years of her life.
All of this foolishness, I mean, what more did she need?
All the cheating signs were there, just like before he
went out at night, he was turning his phone off. Okay,

(59:18):
that was her proof from before. You didn't have to
go this far, and you went back for seconds, you
went back for third, you went back for a lot.
You did this because you wanted to, not because you
were trying to spy and help them out. You got
caught up and gave him some period. That's what you did.
I'm glad you're not my friend, and your sister and
her friend need to stop playing these stupid games. After

(59:42):
ten years of this, He's not going to change anyway.
He's not trying to Steve.

Speaker 1 (59:47):
This is the dumbest, This just dumb MONDI. You know,
is this a movie? Is this more just a car too?

Speaker 2 (59:59):
What?

Speaker 1 (01:00:01):
How does happening? Who do this.

Speaker 9 (01:00:06):
Man?

Speaker 1 (01:00:08):
So you went under cover and he ended up under
the coach.

Speaker 4 (01:00:11):
So you know, your friend got this man who's been
dating this woman for ten years and he ain't proposed
to it yet because he didn't cheated on a bunch
of times, and you know she was gonna leave him,
and then he joined the church just to gain her
trust back so she wouldn't leave him.

Speaker 1 (01:00:28):
And she's still with him.

Speaker 4 (01:00:30):
But then she suspected that he was cheating again after
he turned his phone off a few times while he
was out at night. Then you say, your sister had
a brilliant idea. See, now this is what it let
us starts to take a turn. We're listening to this

(01:00:52):
person described an idea as brilliant.

Speaker 1 (01:00:58):
But after you go through this letter, it ain't a
brilliant fault in this letter. Nowhere.

Speaker 4 (01:01:04):
It is not one brilliant line in this whole letter,
and it ain't no brilliant people in it.

Speaker 1 (01:01:11):
So here we go.

Speaker 4 (01:01:12):
My sister had a brilliant idea that was supposed to
help her friend out. See right there, All of a sudden,
the brilliance has lost this luster because right after she said,
my sister had a brilliant idea that was supposed to
help her friend out. Right there, See how the word

(01:01:33):
brilliant lost this luster with that one line. It was
supposed to help her friend out. See, if you have
a brilliant idea, you would have this with her line
would have said, my sister had a brilliant idea that
helped her friend out.

Speaker 1 (01:01:48):
That would have been a brilliant idea.

Speaker 4 (01:01:51):
You don't say my sister had a brilliant idea that
was supposed to help her friend out.

Speaker 1 (01:01:57):
See right there, It just ain't no luster on this brilliant.

Speaker 4 (01:02:00):
They decided, since a boyfriend didn't know me, I would
start popping up at the club that he go to,
and you was gonna flirt with him.

Speaker 1 (01:02:11):
That was the idea, flirt with him.

Speaker 4 (01:02:15):
I put on a short, we put on more makeup
that I usually wear to make sure he didn't suspect nothing.
Because check this out, because I had done this before
for my sister, so she done had this brilliant I
did twice. So I had done this before for my sister,
but her boyfriend got suspicious because my sister and I

(01:02:36):
look a lot of like, what.

Speaker 2 (01:02:39):
Woo?

Speaker 1 (01:02:41):
How many brilliant people in this letter right here? I
can't come him.

Speaker 4 (01:02:47):
I lost count. It's so many brilliant people. When we
come back, I'm gonna just tell you the truth, lady,
and you're not gonna like it.

Speaker 6 (01:02:54):
All right, Steve, we're gonna have part two of your
response coming up at twenty three minute after the hour.
Today's Strawberry Letter subjects went undercover and ended up under
the covers. All right, we'll get back into that right
after this. You're listening Save Harvey Morning Show. Around the holidays,

(01:03:19):
it's hard to find the right gifts, but you know,
it's even harder getting the right gift. But get this,
Verizon's got the perfect solve for both. They have incredible
gift bundles. You get the latest phone with a new
line on my plan and a brand new smartwatch and tablet,
no trade in needed. You can give a couple away

(01:03:40):
and get yourself one two, or you could keep them
all to yourself. No one has to know. Stop by
your local Verizon. All right, Come on, Steve, let's recap
today's Strawberry Letter. The subject is went undercover and ended
up under the covers.

Speaker 1 (01:03:55):
Yeah, this lady right here, her sister got a friend.

Speaker 4 (01:04:00):
Been dating this man ten years and hadn't proposed to
it yet because he'd been cheating on her several times.
So he decided to prove his loyalty to the girl
he would join her church. So it joined her church,
and she thought she had something. And then she started
suspecting that he might be cheating because they go out
at night.

Speaker 1 (01:04:14):
He turned his.

Speaker 4 (01:04:15):
Phone off a couple of times. So her sister, this
was her words right here, had a brilliant idea that
was supposed to help her friend out. Now we've already
discussed in the last go round how brilliant this idea
wasn't because it lost this luster right after she said
had a brilliant idea because it was supposed to help

(01:04:37):
her friend out. See, the letter should have said my
sister had a brilliant idea that helped her friend out.
Then that idea would have been a brilliant. But there's
nothing brilliant about this idea at all. They decided, says,
her boyfriend didn't know me that I was going to
dress up go to the same club he had on
put on a short wig and extra makeup, and he
wouldn't recognize me, and they wanted me and him her

(01:05:01):
to flirt with him. Then she said, because I had
done this before for my sister. Uh oh, so this's
the same sister. They'd be coming up with these brilliant ideas.
She'd have had this her second time, that you'd have
done this before. And the brilliant idea didn't work the
first time because her boyfriend got suspicious because y'all looked

(01:05:21):
so much alike and ended up dumping your sister because
she was playing games with him. So how does she
have the same brilliant idea a second time that didn't
even work the first time. That's the law of insanity
if you keep doing the same thing expecting a different results.

Speaker 1 (01:05:43):
Did you crazy? All?

Speaker 2 (01:05:45):
Right?

Speaker 4 (01:05:46):
Here we go, But this new guy was different. He
hadn't seen me before. So we danced, We drank, and
kissed in the club. One of my friends was there
getting video everything. Wait a minute, so y'all video on
this too. The more drinks I had, the more his
body felt so good against mine. He leaned to me

(01:06:09):
once again and kissed my neck right there. Video should
have been over. We got the evidence. I go back
to my sister. That would have been all the evidence
you need. She just said, go and flirt with him.
He kissing you on the neck, that's video, that's ground.

Speaker 1 (01:06:25):
That's cheating.

Speaker 4 (01:06:27):
That's what that is to a woman, all right. I
was ready to go home with him. I couldn't fight
the feeling. It had been a while since I had
been touched that way. Put did y'all send into the club?
Y'all since the wrong for y'all hot to trot? Y'all

(01:06:51):
gonna sit the little thought over there in the club,
and now she just in here just doing the most.
I ended up under the covers with this man. And
that was the best experience of my life. That's why
he cheaked, because he good he got, He got spread
this round. I went back for a few more times

(01:07:11):
before I reported back to my sister and her friend.
My sister mad in me, and so as her friend.
I did what I was supposed to do. How can
they be upset when I did what I was asking me?
Ain'tybody asked you.

Speaker 1 (01:07:27):
To do all that?

Speaker 6 (01:07:28):
She understood the assignment.

Speaker 4 (01:07:31):
You failed on the mission when when he kissed your
neck at the club and your film was video friend
was video on it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:37):
That was it right there?

Speaker 4 (01:07:38):
To gee, But you done went in there and you
done got tuned up three four times. Now here's the
conclusion I've come to with this letter. Okay, your sister
and her friend, they have got to get a new
test dummy. They have got hit a new test dummy.

(01:08:01):
I'm telling you, man, you are exactly that. You a
test dummy. Literally, How you gonna who get a dummy
to go in and take a test for it?

Speaker 1 (01:08:18):
Who do that? You know how many people I.

Speaker 4 (01:08:21):
Paid to take tests for me in my life there,
I always get the smartest person I can find. When
I was buying tests, I would buy people who knew
how to get the right test. Who sends a dummy
in to take a test for him? Y'all need a
new test dummy, because this dummy right here is in

(01:08:44):
there taking too much test. She tested everything, she tested, drinks, dancing,
neck kissing.

Speaker 1 (01:08:52):
Let me go to the house. It's the best I
ever had. Just to make show.

Speaker 4 (01:08:56):
I went back over there a few more times to
make sure it was to say, ain't man that was
doing these.

Speaker 1 (01:09:01):
Things to me?

Speaker 4 (01:09:02):
And Lord have mercy. Nah, I'm ready to report back
to my sister and her friend. And then she want
to know how can they be upset when I did
what I was asked over. Lady, you're gonna be single

(01:09:24):
the rest of your life. You can't be this stupid.
Here's the thing that I've discovered in this letter. A
test dummy really can be a dummy, just man, Thank
you for.

Speaker 1 (01:09:41):
That art all right?

Speaker 4 (01:09:43):
And I thought you just strapped them in cars to
run test on a collision, but no, you can actually
send them in the club on missions.

Speaker 1 (01:09:50):
I didn't know today.

But you know what, man, just cause I'm the player
that I am.

Speaker 4 (01:13:38):
Yeah, Texans, why I know they ain't gonna win.

Speaker 1 (01:13:47):

Speaker 6 (01:13:50):
All right, thank you you and your thank you pimping
coming up at the top of the hour of wife
thinks her marriage would be better if they had a
bigger house. We'll get into it right after this. You're
listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, So
this is from Deanna in Knoxville. Dianna says, I think

(01:14:11):
my marriage would be better if my husband and I
moved to a bigger home. He's always inviting people to
stay with us, and we always have to put our
son on the sleeper sofa in the living room. It's
not fair to him to sleep on the couch and
have to share his bathroom every holiday. We were beefing
over Thanksgiving because we're busting at the themes in this house.
How do I tell him not to invite any guests

(01:14:33):
for Christmas without causing a war in our home?

Speaker 1 (01:14:37):
Well, you can't have a tiny house. It has to
help me and be busting at the scene.

Speaker 4 (01:14:44):
Yeah, I ain't never seen that, and I watched a
tiny house show several times.

Speaker 1 (01:14:49):
Never see him have company. You can't have people over.

Speaker 6 (01:14:54):
She didn't say it was a tiny house.

Speaker 4 (01:14:56):
But now they got to stay out in the yard. Well,
how big is this family, the couple and the boy.

Speaker 1 (01:15:03):
We know about? Yeah, yeah, that's I mean, I mean,
I mean its sides wild? How big they be? Oh,
we don't know.

Speaker 6 (01:15:10):
How do y'all know that's in there?

Speaker 2 (01:15:12):
And what is that?

Speaker 1 (01:15:12):
When you hear when you hear busting at the scene,
that means something. Yeah, maybe the house is.

Speaker 5 (01:15:18):
Usually small for the amount of people of the company
coming in and out.

Speaker 4 (01:15:24):
It's a person busting at the thing called I'm probably knows.

Speaker 1 (01:15:29):
Just move shifting in now?

Speaker 4 (01:15:31):
Yes, what some flowboards? You know you can hear them
coming up the hallway and you got a lot of
weight on you.

Speaker 8 (01:15:38):
You're gonna have some loose slow boards and that and
that tilet That toilet can't take the three of them
like it's been doing.

Speaker 1 (01:15:44):
It can't.

Speaker 6 (01:15:44):
Oh did you guys get that out?

Speaker 1 (01:15:46):
You got to sit down on that toilet easy because
they shift them screws. Said the boy had his own
bathroom because.

Speaker 4 (01:15:56):
You know how personal and toilet is bolted to the
float two boat in the back, one of the little boats,
and crack.

Speaker 1 (01:16:04):
What they have to do with the size of you big?

Speaker 7 (01:16:10):
Would you put out a sofa bed? That boy big,
not no regular bed, a sofa bed.

Speaker 6 (01:16:15):
He's got to sleep somewhere the way. You know they big.

Speaker 4 (01:16:20):
If you've had to move your toilet tissue roll to
directly in front of the toilet, there some big people
in there, people, Because if you're real big and you
try to reach around on the side, it ain't enough
room to get your hand between the toilet and.

Speaker 1 (01:16:34):
The sink in front. What does that have to do
with this? Because I have been over fat people's house before.
They do me too. Little fat things that fat people do.
What what's a bigger house for y'all? That's it?

Speaker 6 (01:16:51):
Buy this woman a bigger house. Okay, that's basically all
it is.

Speaker 1 (01:16:56):
That's right. She needs more room, more space.

Speaker 6 (01:17:00):
And why because he keeps inviting people over and it
puts their son out.

Speaker 1 (01:17:04):
The guests are big too. I'll tell you one thing.
That refrigerator all way full though.

Speaker 6 (01:17:17):
There.

Speaker 4 (01:17:17):
That's another sign that you had a fat person house.
That refrigerator.

Speaker 1 (01:17:21):
It don't ever be it's a lot of heavy breathing
in that too. Will y'all give her advice on how
to get a bigger house?

Speaker 2 (01:17:34):
What?

Speaker 4 (01:17:34):
They don't have any steps everything? Big people don't buy
double death the houses they buy. Ranchers got a nice flat.

Speaker 6 (01:17:47):
Wow, Well Christmas is coming up, but we know they
won't have a new house by Christmas.

Speaker 4 (01:17:53):
Well, they're gonna need some by trailer Holmes too, because
when you're big and and you got to have a
trailer home. Because Quinna, when y'all spend a lot of
time in the bedroom, it shifts the earth up on you.
You gotta be able to pull it up onto another location.
What are double wide.

Speaker 1 (01:18:15):
Foundation. I've been around fat people all my life. I know,
I know all.

Speaker 6 (01:18:20):
Her question is how do I tell him not to
invite any guests for Chris Christmas without causing a war
in our home? That's her question.

Speaker 4 (01:18:30):
You know that that'll be the quick feeding them. That's
that's the best way to keep fat people at your house.

Speaker 6 (01:18:36):
That's it coming up a twenty minutes after we will
have more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 4 (01:18:43):
Don't serve nothing for TV dinners. Everything is in that
trade compartment like that.

Speaker 6 (01:18:49):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, guys,
so today is National Comfort Food Day. We all love
our comfort foods. What's your favorite, Steve? I know you've
been dieting and cutting back and stuff. These are the holidays.

Speaker 1 (01:19:08):

Speaker 6 (01:19:20):

Speaker 1 (01:19:24):
No, that ain't at the house. Don't do it.

Speaker 4 (01:19:27):

do not make it. When you made the cranberry sauce,
I'm we're gonna ocean spray in the can spray people.

That's it.

Speaker 1 (01:19:46):
Just be who you are. What's your here with this yello?
Talking about this? Is this is cranberry sauce. No, it's not.
It's jealo. But my daddy was so mad.

Speaker 2 (01:19:55):
My daddy was so.

Speaker 4 (01:19:58):
All she did was she made some strawberry yellow and
she put some cranberries in it.

Speaker 1 (01:20:04):
That was real tangy. My poor comfort food though, is
a cheese purpose. I had one yesterday. What did you
put it? What did you have on it? Tell us?
I want a pickle, male and cheese. I don't care.
And onion grow the raw onion, no raw onion.

Okay, Yeah, that sounds good. Yeah, that sounds good.

Speaker 2 (01:24:22):
Mind.

Speaker 6 (01:24:26):
That's today's rounded. Would you rather coming up next to
our last break of the day. We'll close out the
show with one and only Steve Harvey right after this.
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Hey, y'all,
this is Monica, This is Spike Lee.

Speaker 1 (01:24:44):
Hey, this is Mary J. Blood. Yo, this is Steve
and A Smith.

Speaker 6 (01:24:47):
Hey, this is Sakka Khan.

Speaker 4 (01:24:48):
You have no idea what it is, This is Carlos Miller,
and this may or may not be the Steve Harvey
Morning Show.

Speaker 6 (01:24:55):
It's the most wonderful and stressful time of year. From
airport trips to noisy this is when your family can
drive you crazy. But you don't have to go along
with all that. With Prime Video, you can take a
break from the stress and family feuding. Holiday edition. Whether
you want me time or we time. Prime Videos got
new releases, holiday classics, and so much more. Sit back,

(01:25:19):
relax and unwrap your next watch. With Prime Video, it's
giving holiday harmony. Here we are, guys, our last break
of the day. And it's been a good day. It's
been a good day.

Speaker 1 (01:25:31):
Why not? Yeah, Hey, you know what, I had to
come to the realization.

Speaker 4 (01:25:36):
Kind of want to share this with people, but you know,
I want to talk about there's a cost. There is
a cost. You know, when you make the decision to
be successful comes with a cost. And as much as

(01:25:59):
I've tried to negate the cost, as much as I've
tried to alleviate the cost, as much as I've oftentimes
just tried to.

Speaker 1 (01:26:10):
Not talk up the cost, the cost is real. You know,
I got in trouble not really trouble.

Speaker 4 (01:26:17):
But I got a bunch of haters that came online
one time when they saw me give a speech about
if you want to be successful, really really successful as something,
you can't sleep eight hours. And I believe that, you know,
somebody counted it with Oprah says she gets eight hours sleep.

Speaker 1 (01:26:36):
Well.

Speaker 4 (01:26:37):
Oprah's wealthy, though, but if you go back on her
journey and asked her when she was hustling trying to
make it, what she getting eight I don't think the
answer would be yes. Everybody I know that's grinding, that's
in the hustle, trying to really really have more than normal.

(01:27:02):
If you want above average, it comes at a cost.
And I've tried not to talk about it because I
don't want to, you know, knock anybody down about it.

Speaker 1 (01:27:15):
But man, there's a cost for everything. And you know,
I know a lot of.

Speaker 4 (01:27:23):
Successful people who have health issues. I've had my share
of myself. Tommy can tell you about his, Junior can
tell you about his, All of us can tell you
about health issues. It's sometimes, you know, it just it's
a part of it. I don't know how to explain it.

Speaker 1 (01:27:40):
Now.

Speaker 4 (01:27:40):
You don't want to sacrifice one for the other. But
sometimes it's unavoidable because there is a cost, and a
lot of times you end up sometimes you have health
issues because you just don't know any better, you know,
And that's why knowledge is so important, because when you
know better, you can do better. And had I known

(01:28:01):
a long long time ago that everything I put into
my body was gonna have an effect on me, I
would have made some changes a long long time ago.
I just really started understanding this in the last fifteen
twenty years of my life. You know, the how important
eating the right thing is, how important it is to
take supplements, how important it is to take regular visits

(01:28:23):
to your doctor. And as black men, I'm talking especially
to black men, we find it so hard to go
to these doctors. I got a partner right now, man
that's trying to get out the hospital right now because
he ain't been to the doctor in eight years. But
he's seventy and he ain't been to the doctor in

(01:28:44):
eight years. We can't do that because we've been grinding.
And I understood something about grinding recently. When you're grinding,
grinding means actually to wear down. But in order to
have something, you got to get in the wear down process,
and the thing you end up wearing down is your body. Now,
I'm not saying you should exchange your health for wealth.

(01:29:05):
I wish that wasn't the cost, but oftentimes that's the
cost factor, and people who don't want it you don't
have to do it. But then there's a cost with
being poor. To see, there's a cost factor when you
decide not to be anything. It's a cost factor when
you decide I'm just gonna ride it out, I'm just
gonna mail it in. There's a cost factor for that.

(01:29:28):
I notice when old people who've been working their whole
life finally retire and they don't and they to stop
being active. I watch them wear down, dissipate, just wither
away because that work, that thing called the grind of
getting up going to work every day. It gave them

(01:29:49):
something to live for, it gave them something to do,
It made them active. It's just a cost, man. But
you have to decide which one of the costs you
want to pay. Do you want to pay the cost
of beings successful or do you want to be the
cost you want to pay the cost of being poor. Now,
when I say poor, I mean really poor, I don't
mean like if you make a hundred thousand dollars, I

(01:30:09):
ain't talking about like that. You're doing great, man, your
life is good. I think people are that that make
one hundred thousand dollars doing fine with your life. That's
not what I'm saying, so please don't misunderstand me. I'm
talking about when you don't have enough to eat, you
can't put a roof over your family's head, you can't
get them to the store, and then you got to

(01:30:30):
do more. Man, you got to do more. But it's
a cost for it, one way or the other. I suggest, though,
if I look back on it all, you have to
find a way to create a balance. But the balance
ain't gonna be even even. It's just gotta be. You

(01:30:50):
got to grind, you got to rest. You got to grind,
You got to rest. You got to grind, you got
to rest.

Speaker 1 (01:30:57):
If you just.

Speaker 4 (01:30:58):
Grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, then
try to rest, the cost factor's gonna be greater. So
find the balance for yourself. I can't tell anybody what
that is, but there is a cost to being successful,
but there is a cost to not being successful, and

(01:31:18):
you have to decide which one of.

Speaker 1 (01:31:20):
The costs you have to pay. Now that's just real talk.

Speaker 4 (01:31:23):
You can say it ain't so, but yes, it is
not being able to provide for your family. That's a
cost being able to provide for your family. There is
a cost. You have to decide which cost you're willing
to pay and then find a balance in there. That's
what I had to discover. So those are my closees remarks.

(01:31:43):
That's it for today. Hey, listen, y'all, have a great day.
Talk to God today. He loved to hear from you.
This is Steve Harvey. Mor to show this how we
do what you feel me. All right, everybody, we're out
of here.
